Getting Ready for the Baby | The Longest Journey (Part 3) (Jim Shelburne)

Dec 11, 2022 • Jim Shelburne

If you’ve ever experienced the joy of having a baby come into your world, you also know what comes quickly after: chaos! Babies have a way of turning things completely upside-down, and when they come and stay, our lives are never the same. One of the most marvelous pieces of the deep theology we call the “incarnation” is that Jesus, God with skin on, came to us as a tiny, helpless baby. And, I feel pretty certain, that His coming brought joy to his earthly parents. But we know that it also brought chaos, both early on as they fled from Herod and later when literally every heart in creation would be forced to make a decision about His identity and His charge to “follow him.” Today we’ll consider the chaos that comes with ordinary babies, but mostly, as we ask some of the same questions we did with our own kids—we’ll find that with Him, the answers are a lot bigger.
